For the GOP, Councilman Hal Heiner leads in fundraising, but he hasn’t raised as much money as King or Fischer. Also on the ballot is businessman Chris Thieneman. Jonathan Robertson entered the race on Tuesday afternoon.

Two of the eleven current candidates will remain after the May 18th primaries. They will likely face at least two independent candidates who have declared their intentions to run. The filing deadline for independents is in August.

The candidates are all vying to replace outgoing mayor Jerry Abramson, who will run for Lieutenant Governor next year.

Here are some of our recent stories on Thieneman and suburban issues.
